COSMOS
Support COSMOS Scholarships this Give Day!

Each summer, COSMOS brings together middle and high school STEM students from throughout California to five UC campuses, including UC Davis, UC Santa Cruz, UC Irvine, UC San Diego, and now UCLA! With your help, we can be ready to provide more than $500,000 in tuition-relieving financial aid. This crucial support removes obstacles for dedicated students who otherwise might not be able to participate in this special program.

The COSMOS Scholarship Fund is our top priority as the program expands to UCLA in 2024 and UC Merced in 2025! Please join us to help provide access to this special opportunity!

COSMOS propels the brightest young minds in California to pursue their passions and interests in STEM fields. Together, we motivate, challenge and support the next generation of STEM leaders and innovators. Gifts, of any size, align with this purpose and make a significant difference.

This year we have two special challenges issued by proud COSMOS alumni families! Please join in their efforts to provide access to COSMOS this summer and help build our scholarship endowment for future participants!
